Hi all,

After seeing the string on secondary struct. assignment and molecular visualization, I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a way to produce the HELIX and SHEET records (i.e. explicit secondary struct. assignment) automatically without depositing to PDB. Obviously, I realize I could write this header manually based on the assignments I get from DSSP, but for a large structure I was hoping there is an easier way. I need this header for making accurate cartoon figures in Pymol, but I am not yet ready to deposit the structure if that is the only way to acquire such a header automatically.

Any help is much appreciated!
